Post-COVID condition is the presence of new, recurring, or ongoing signs and symptoms for greater than four weeks after a SARS-CoV-2 infection. Persistent headache as a neurologic sequalae of COVID-19 infection is a common prolonged symptom with limited characterization in the literature. This was a case of a 27-year-old female diagnosed with mild COVID-19 who presented with fever, colds, fatigue, headache, decreased hearing, sore throat, dry cough, pleuritic chest pain, anosmia, ageusia, myalgia, and severe low back pain. Headache was described as remitting, frontally located, squeezing and moderate to severe in pain intensity. She was admitted in a tertiary COVID referral hospital for 8 days and was managed supportively. On the 10th day of illness, symptoms had resolved except for an on and off headache. The residual recurrent headache lasted for more than 5 months after being tested negative for SARSCOV2 on repeat reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The possible pathophysiologic mechanisms for neurologic manifestations and prolonged headache were hypoxia, endothelial damage through angiotensin converting enzyme receptor, and cytokine reactions. The characteristics of the symptoms remained unclear despite the proposed mechanisms for prolonged headache among COVID-19 patients.

DNA profiles have been increasingly used as the most reliable means to identify remains from war or mass disaster. To establish the identity with such a large set of victims, special care should be taken to correlate remains with correct family references while avoiding coincidental match between non-relatives. Therefore we address here relevant statistical and combinatorial issues in the DNA identification of mass victims. A simple and general formula for the likelihood ratio governing any potential kinship between two DNA profiles was presented, and for that purpose, the probabilities that a given relative and an individual share autosomal identical-bydescent alleles were calculated. In addition, a method dealing with the allele drop-out in kinship analysis and the estimation of a cold hit were discussed.

Glomus tumors are benign tumors that account for 1% to 5% of all soft tissue tumors of the hand and are characterized by a triad of sensitivity to cold, localized tenderness and severe paroxysmal pain. Paroxysmal pain is a symptom common not only in glomus tumors but also in CRPS, and the hand is one of the commonly affected sites in patients with both glomus tumors and CRPS. Therefore, it is not easy to clinically diagnose glomus tumors superimposed on already affected region of CRPS patients. We report a case of glomus tumor concomitantly originating with CRPS at the hand.
